Creating a BRep entity from scratch
In this article, we create a BRep entity by defining its vertices, edges, faces and shells. const double radius = 10, height = 20, centreToCentre = 20, offset = 3; Point3D[] vertices = new Brep.Vertex[8]; vertices[0] = new Brep.Vertex(0, -radius); vertices[1] = new Brep.Vertex(centreToCentre, -r…

At the time of writing, due to a singularity, we need to set the radius as 19 units instead of 20. // Sketch 1 var sk1 = new devDept.Geometry.ConstraintSolver.Sketch(); // Add origin point SketchPoint origin1 = sk1.AddOrigin(); // Lines var l1 = sk1.AddLine(-20, -60, -20, -100); var l2 = sk1.Add…

In the following code fragment, you'll find a Sketch-based BRep modeling sample. Sketch sk1 = new Sketch(Plane.XZ); SketchPoint origin1 = sk1.AddOrigin(); SketchLine[] poly = sk1.AddPolygon( new Point2D(0, 0), new Point2D(80, 0), new Point2D(170, 100), new Point2D(560, 100), …

Changing hole diameter in a BRep object
In the following code, we first create a BRep object with a hole, then we change the diameter of a hole with world axis-alignment by editing BRep elements: faces/edges/vertices. Note that this code will work only for radius values that do not intersect/touch the contours of the others faces. devDe…
